From the moment I met Lauren and Joe, I knew we’d have a great time at their wedding. At our original meeting, we talked about Lord of the Rings, Game of Thrones, Deadpool and tons of other geekery things! 🙂 They enjoy Ren Festivals and I as intrigued! Most importantly, we laughed … a lot. Since they live in Michigan, it was difficult to plan an engagement session but they practiced the tips I gave them so they were prepared on wedding day.
It was a gorgeous day at Chapel Vally Estates in Ellwood, albeit terribly hot. I may have complained about the heat (Tony and I got married in December because heat is a problem for me) but Lauren & Joe never complained! With frequent water breaks, they were ready to go!
Favorite Moment of the Day: I have two….because Maura can never pick just one! First, their entrance song at the reception was the Star Wars theme! YES!!! My kind of entrance – I just stood there laughing and smiling! Second, while I was taking a quick break on the steps (hydrating so I wouldn’t pass out from heat exhaustion..haha), Joe came and sat next to me for a minute. He was thanking me for my hard work and perseverance through the really hot day. Then, Lauren walked by us, smiled, then started chatting with a friend. Joe looked at me and said, “I just love that woman right there! She’s simply amazing!” Melt my heart, Joe! And, you know, I can see it in his face in the photos – Joe LOVES Lauren, and I’m so happy that I could capture that in their wedding photos.
Thanks, Lauren & Joe for letting us be a part of your day! Wishing you a lifetime of love and happiness! Here are just a few wedding photos.
Let’s start off with a few details from their day.
Loved the way Lauren’s parents were looking at her.
Final preparations!
The new Mr. and Mrs.!
And, I leave you with some reception fun!
